Upside Community Workers recently visited HMP Grampian to attend their Throughcare Open Day, part of Prisoners' Week.
A great chance to share what we do and connect with colleagues in housing, recovery, peer support, and family services! #throughcare #prisonersweek #HMPGrampian
The Upside team were delighted to be invited along to the launch event for Prisoners Week Scotland, held at Lethan St Marks in Perth. The marketplace was a fantastic opportunity to meet with other service providers and promote the work of Upside.
